From Plassey to Partition by Sekhar Bandopaddhya Download PDF

From Plassey to Partition is an eminently readable account of the
emergence of India as a nation. It covers about two hundred years of
political and socio-economic turbulence. Of particular interest to the
contemporary reader will be sections such as ‘Early Nationalism:
Discontent and Dissension’, ‘Many Voices of a Nation’ and ‘Freedom with
Partition’. On the one hand, it converses with students of Indian
history and on the other, it engages general and curious readers. Few
books on this crucial period of history have captured the rhythms of
India’s polyphonic nationalism as From Plassey to Partition.
